| Take Me Away |
| Take Me Away (Present Tense) I keep my razor away in a drawer I know it'll always be there For I know no one else cares They tell me it's all okay I tell them to leave me and go away I choose to be alone Love just brings pain Friends I make never stay The only love I feel Is for the blade that I keep so near It glistens in the sun It's sharp and welcoming So I continue to dice and slice my skin I wish to not die I live for the soothing pain I glide it across my skin It cuts through The wounds are deep But I do not feel a thing I do not cry For I've cried all my tears It is not death I fear I know one day I'll die It's welcome to take me away "So Come take me away" I say |
